So, When i first got my turtles, there shells were sort of flat and nice and stuff right. I have been noticeing that the tops of there shells, are like, turning into spike looking things. does anyone know what im talking about? like, the very spine of the shell looks like its coming to a point pointing twords the tail of the turtle.

That's normal for hatchlings. The shell will eventually flat out again as they grow
and shed. That would be several years later.
